Crosstrap

Crosstrap is a 1962 British Bmovie crime film starring Laurence Payne, Jill Adams and Gary Cockrell and marking the directorial debut of Robert HartfordDavis. The screenplay was adapted from a novel by John Newton Chance and the film was reportedly unusually graphic for its time in its depiction of onscreen violence, with one reviewer describing a climactic bloodbath where corpses bite the dust as freely as Indians in a John Ford western.

Geoff and Sally find themselves being held captive, and matters take a turn for the worse when Juan and his men also arrive on the scene, forcing a standoff between the two factions during which Geoff and Sally are roughlytreated by both sides. Duke starts to fall for Sally, and his obvious interest in her antagonises his girlfriend Rina Zena Marshall. Eventually there is a bloody shootout between the rival gangs, with Dukes men getting the better of the exchange. Duke boards a plane to make good his escape with the valuables, but the plane is shot down by the jealous and vengeful Rina.Crosstrap appears to have received a mainly negative critical reception, with verdicts such as overacted, ludicrous and amateurish Monthly Film Bulletin and brawny but brainless Kine Weekly. The Daily Cinema was less dismissive, labelling it an incredible but lively tale of gangwarfare, packed with hearty action and intrigue, plus a spot of sex for flavour offering robust...programme support. ........
